CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The information contained or incorporated by reference into this presentation may contain certain forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, certain plans, expectations, goals, projections, and statements about the benefits of the proposed transaction, the plans, objectives, expectations and intentions of Huntington Bancshares Incorporated (“Huntington”) and Cadence Bank (“Cadence”), the expected timing of completion of the transaction, and other statements that are not historical facts. Such statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, estimates, uncertainties and other important factors that change over time and could cause actual results to differ materially from any results, performance, or events expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including as a result of the factors referenced below. Statements that do not describe historical or current facts, including statements about beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as expect, anticipate, continue, believe, intend, estimate, plan, trend, objective, target, goal, or similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as will, may, might, should, would, could, or similar variations. The forward-looking statements are intended to be subject to the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Huntington and Cadence caution that the forward-looking statements in this communication are not guarantees of future performance and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to assess and are subject to change based on factors which are, in many instances, beyond Huntington’s and Cadence’s control. While there is no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, below are certain factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained or implied in the forward-looking statements or historical performance: changes in general economic, political, or industry conditions; deterioration in business and economic conditions, including persistent inflation, supply chain issues or labor shortages, instability in global economic conditions and geopolitical matters, as well as volatility in financial markets; changes in U.S. trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs and retaliatory tariffs; the impact of pandemics and other catastrophic events or disasters on the global economy and financial market conditions and our business, results of operations, and financial condition; the impacts related to or resulting from bank failures and other volatility, including potential increased regulatory requirements and costs, such as Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) special assessments, long-term debt requirements and heightened capital requirements, and potential impacts to macroeconomic conditions, which could affect the ability of depository institutions, including us, to attract and retain depositors and to borrow or raise capital; unexpected outflows of uninsured deposits which may require us to sell investment securities at a loss; changing interest rates which could negatively impact the value of our portfolio of investment securities; the loss of value of our investment portfolio which could negatively impact market perceptions of us and could lead to deposit withdrawals; the effects of social media on market perceptions of us and banks generally; cybersecurity risks; uncertainty in U.S. fiscal and monetary policy, including the interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”); volatility and disruptions in global capital, foreign exchange and credit markets; movements in interest rates; competitive pressures on product pricing and services; success, impact, and timing of our business strategies, including market acceptance of any new products or services including those implementing our “Fair Play” banking philosophy; changes in policies and standards for regulatory review of bank mergers; the nature, extent, timing, and results of governmental actions, examinations, reviews, reforms, regulations, and interpretations, including those related to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the Basel III regulatory capital reforms, as well as those involving the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, Federal Reserve, FDIC, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and state-level regulators; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the merger agreement between Huntington and Cadence; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Huntington or Cadence; delays in completing the proposed transaction involving Huntington and Cadence; the failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals (and the risk that such approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the transaction); the failure to obtain Huntington shareholder approval or Cadence shareholder approval or to satisfy any of the other conditions to the transaction on a timely basis or at all; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the transaction are not realized when expected or at all, including as a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength of the economy and competitive factors in the areas where Huntington and Cadence do business; the possibility that the transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; the ability of Huntington and Cadence to meet expectations regarding the timing, completion and accounting and tax treatment of the transaction; diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; potential adverse reactions or changes to business, customer or employee relationships, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the transaction; the ability to complete the transaction and integration of Huntington and Cadence successfully; the dilution caused by Huntington’s issuance of additional shares of its capital stock in connection with the transaction; and other factors that may affect the future results of Huntington and Cadence. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in Huntington’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and in its subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, including for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, each of which is on file with the SEC and available on the “Investor Relations” section of Huntington’s website, http://www.huntington.com, under the heading “Investor Relations” and in other documents Huntington files with the SEC, and in Cadence’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and in its subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, including for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, each of which is on file with the Federal Reserve and available on Cadence’s investor relations website, ir.cadencebank.com, under the heading “Public Filings” and in other documents Cadence files with the Federal Reserve.

All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and are based on information available at that time. Neither Huntington nor Cadence assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, new information or future events, changes in assumptions or changes in circumstances or other factors affecting forward-looking statements that occur after the date the forward-looking statements were made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required by federal securities laws. If Huntington or Cadence updates one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that Huntington or Cadence will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements. As forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, caution should be exercised against placing undue reliance on such statements.

Exhibit 99.1

Video Transcript for Video to Cadence Bank Teammates from Steve Steinour

Hi everyone. Let me begin by extending a warm welcome.

My name is Steve Steinour and I've had the privilege to serve as the CEO at Huntington since 2009.

And on behalf of all of us at Huntington, I want you to know how excited we are to partner with you.

Cadence’s legacy is built on deep local knowledge and enduring relationships—often spanning generations. That relationship-first, the community-based approach, is at the heart of Huntington’s model also. As we come together, we have a clear goal: to bring the full power of our combined capabilities to your customers and communities.

Now many of us have been on both sides of combinations like this—I know I have at various points in my career—and I understand the mix of emotions and the questions, the great questions, that come with it. So let me address the most immediate questions up front.

First and foremost, what does this mean for you?

We are not here to close branches or pull back. In fact, we're not planning to close any of the branches during this combination. We’re here to invest: In you, in people, and in certain markets and businesses. We’re here to grow.

In almost all of the markets in which you operate, we don't have teams. We don’t have colleagues. So we’re asking you and we’re counting on you to become our team. We hope you’ll join us as we, together, continue to build a purpose-led bank. And we expect to retain the majority of the customer-facing colleagues. These positions are really important to us as we move forward.

And you and your teams are crucial to customer retention and the future growth of our combined organization. And together, we can provide more tools, products and services to help you serve your customers more efficiently and effectively.

And where there are potential overlaps and job impacts, we’re going to do the best we can to find other opportunities for this impacted from all across our organization.

There’s still a lot to work through as we begin the integration process. But we’re committed to being open and transparent at every step of this process. We won’t always have immediate answers, but we will provide information as soon as we have it.

And you’ll soon begin to receive regular updates, including access to an integration website and frequently asked questions with our answers.

Second: What does this mean for your customers?

The partnership will help us do even more to serve both new and existing customers.

It means access to a broader portfolio of products and services, new digital tools, award-winning capabilities - including those digital tools - and other capabilities that will enhance yours and their experiences.

And, as a combined team we’ll continue to support and manage our customer relationships locally. We are a big believer and are strategically committed to local delivery. That's core to our business and consistent with the relationship-first approach that Cadence is so well known for.

Third: What does this mean for your communities?

Since 1876, Cadence has played a special role in your communities.

And we recognize and deeply respect that legacy.

We want to honor it. We actually want to build on it.

And like you, Huntington is deeply engaged in the places we work and live: from small towns to big cities and everything in between.

We’re going to maintain community partnerships and philanthropic commitments that are established. And we’ll continue to invest in your communities—places like Tupelo, Houston, Birmingham, Atlanta, and many more—for the long term.

Now, looking ahead.

This week, Huntington’s senior leaders will be in Mississippi, Texas and a number of cities to meet with you, to listen to you, and to learn from you. We’re looking forward to sharing more about who Huntington is and what we stand for. And over the coming weeks and months, we'll visit even more locations to learn more about all of you, the teams we have and the communities you serve.

Once again, I’m thrilled and honored to welcome you to Huntington.

We’re proud to be your partner, and I look forward to a brighter future together.

Thank you very, very much.
